Our parish of Stalybridge: St George is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO), Karen Watkins (07514 207454) and her deputy, Rose Hayward (0161 303 1731). Our Diocese of Manchester’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information. The Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO is Abbey Clephane-Wilson, who can be contacted at [email protected] or at 0161 828 1465 / 07384 460958. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA or our PSO. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
